Age of students: 8 - 9 years
In Year 4 we try to build the students self-esteem and celebrate their work by displaying them throughout the classroom.

Skills students have learned from Year 3 are brought forward to Year 4. Students are supported through all aspects of the English curriculum.

Topics are discussed before comprehension and grammar work takes place to ensure students grasp and understand instructions to the task. The cultural identity of students are celebrated and acknowledged.
